Impartial_Observer Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Following a PAT, multiple dead ball fouls are called B/R, four to be exact. 1 R's 45, 2 R's 30, 3 R's 15, 4 R's 7.5. Rule book states 10 yards between K's LOS and R's restraining line. What do we have? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 SoIndRef Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 I think the fact that four days have passed and no one wants to touch this one, means you only have one option.... Start the van...... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 JustRules Posted October 10, 2019 Share Posted October 10, 2019 R can still only be 10-yards from the kick line so they will be 2.5 yards deep in the end zone. The best option for K is to kick it so it rolls dead inside the 5. They can't legally recover, but they would pin R deep. The other option is to kick it out of bounds so R will accept the 5-yard penalty form the previous spot and rekick (can't put it 25 yards beyond the free kick line and they probably wouldn't accept 5 yards in advance of where it went OOB. Then K could try to onside kick it and recover inside the 2. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 Impartial_Observer Posted October 10, 2019 Author Share Posted October 10, 2019 We were dangerously close to this last week, one USC away. I posted on a FB group. I have not been able to find any specific rule reference, other than R's restraining line must be 10 yards beyond K's LOS. One tip I found was to use the chains to set R's restraining line. The obvious applies, if the ball touches the GL it's a TB. If the ball doesn't go 10 yards K can not recover unless touched by R. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the best option is for K to decline the yardage of the last one or 2 and have the ball placed where they can recover an onside kick. If I’m K I’d rather free kick from the 14 let’s say I dint know the exact yardline but then you can recover a onside kick and if not it might be onside the 5. If not the dribble it is the best option Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
